While I agree that it's not difficult to level up a caster to 50, a lot of people were initially here for PVP. When they come and see a barren server that has <30 people unless a dragon is up, they feel no motivation to continue on with the grind. Why should they? So they can join Nihilum a month from now, get geared up in two weeks and quit? Some sort of bonus, in whatever form it may be, would hopefully bring a "second wave" of people, that you could group with (this is meant to be a social game after all), PVP against etc, rather than AFK exp every 6 minutes as the only person in your zone.

Imagine how much more fun this server would be with three equally sized guilds at the top competing amongst one another with nightly PVP. That won't ever happen unless something is done to bring more people to this server. Maybe make the EXP bonus temporary, anything, who really cares at this point tbh? The arguments about it delegitimizing the efforts of the current Level 50's fall on deaf ears when the nightly pop is consistently below 40.
